For more details, [see the full changelog](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/compare/v4.1.0...v4.2.0) and [milestone](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/milestone/36?closed=1).
This is a minor release with one significant new feature: a mentions panel!
Other notable additions include custom highlight exceptions, a new configuration option to not send preview requests to 3rd party websites, and uploaded images will have [EXIF](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exif) data automatically removed.
There's also a new section for configuring SASL on the Connect screen, and `SASL EXTERNAL` is now supported.
Along with other bugs, a Chrome bug causing lag when typing has been fixed. Additionally, the `node-sqlite3` dependency has been updated, and you no longer need to re-install The Lounge when you update Node.js.
And as an update for our Docker users, `thelounge-docker` now has support for ARM images; thanks [@williamboman](https://github.com/williamboman) and [@klausenbusk](https://github.com/klausenbusk)!

## v4.1.0-rc.1 - 2020-02-27 [Pre-release]
[See the full changelog](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/compare/v4.0.0...v4.1.0-rc.1)
This is a release candidate (RC) for v4.1.0 to ensure maximum stability for public release.
Bugs may be fixed, but no further features will be added until the next stable version.
Please refer to the commit list given above for a complete list of changes, or wait for the stable release to get a thoroughly prepared change log entry.
As with all pre-releases, this version requires explicit use of the `next` tag to be installed:
```sh
yarn global add thelounge@next
```
## v4.0.0 - 2019-12-31
For more details, [see the full changelog](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/compare/v3.3.0...v4.0.0) and [milestone](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/milestone/34?closed=1).
This release finishes our work of porting the client codebase to the Vue.js framework,
completely removing jQuery and handlebars.
We are marking this release as a major update due to the sheer amount of internal code changes,
and it is impossible to predict what could have been broken as a result.
The minimum required Node.js version has been bumped up to 10.15.
If you are a theme author or have CSS tweaks, [refer to the upgrade guide](https://thelounge.chat/docs/guides/upgrade)
to see which changes have been made.
Before upgrading, make sure The Lounge does not report any warnings or deprecations in the console.

## v3.3.0 - 2019-10-28
For more details, [see the full changelog](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/compare/v3.2.0...v3.3.0) and [milestone](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/milestone/33?closed=1).
This is a minor release aimed at mostly fixing bugs and increasing stability.
**This release bumps required Node.js version to at least 10.16.3 or higher.**
We suggest updating to Node.js v12, which is the latest LTS version.
Feature wise, there are a couple of things that have been added.
If you reconnect to a network and the nick you want is in use,
The Lounge will now attempt to regain your original nick if it sees that nick quit the network.
The `/join` command will now prefix channel names if there is no prefix. For example,
you can execute `/join thelounge`, and client will automatically turn that into `#thelounge`
_(first prefix from CHANTYPES is taken)_.
We have been working heavily on porting the client code base to the Vue.js framework,
and hope to have it ready for release soon™.

## v3.1.1 - 2019-07-11
[See the full changelog](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/compare/v3.1.0...v3.1.1)
Minor release to fix an issue where v3.1.0 fails to install on Linux/macOS using npm cli.
## v3.1.0 - 2019-07-11
For more details, [see the full changelog](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/compare/v3.0.1...v3.1.0) and [milestone](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/milestone/30?closed=1).
This is the first release that includes a largely rewritten frontend, which is built on top of the Vue.js framework!
We have started slowly transitioning the frontend to use Vue.js, which allows us to structure the code in a better fashion
and to remove all the hacks related to keeping the state in the DOM using jQuery data attributes.
This paves the road for future support of client customization and a plugin system.
While this release is mostly related to the rewrite, there are many user facing changes and improvements in this release!

### Changed
- Only active channel is rendered in DOM instead of them all. ([#1270](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/pull/1270))
- Input is no longer global (each channel gets its own input field). ([#706](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/pull/706))
- Input history is also per-channel now. ([#2791](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/pull/2791))

- Collapsed networks still show channels with highlights. ([#2223](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/pull/2223))
- Client commands are refactored and `/join` can assume current channel. ([#2004](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/pull/2004)) ([#2281](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/pull/2281)) ([#2266](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/pull/2266))
- Channel `/list` persists on page reloads. ([#2249](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/pull/2249))
- Message parser now returns Vue elements (via createElement) instead of raw html content (no more manual escaping!)

- Hidden status messages are no longer rendered in DOM. ([#813](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/pull/813))

- Chat input is no longer disabled when disconnected (still can't submit though)
- All channels user lists are cleared when disconnected from the network
- New utility function to update window title, notified state, favicon consistently. Which fixes titles or favicon sometimes not updating, e.g. on channel part. ([#2746](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/pull/2746)). ([#1311](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/pull/1311))
- `<>` and `*` around nicks have been moved to DOM so copying is consistent. ([#2801](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/pull/2801))

- Custom highlights are now synced to the server and highlight code works on the server, this means that push notifications work for custom highlights, and they get synced across clients correctly.

## v3.0.0 - 2019-01-27
For more details, [see the full changelog](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/compare/v2.7.1...v3.0.0) and [milestone](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/milestone/28?closed=1).
Almost a year in the making, 1500+ commits, 650+ merged PRs, and 30+ contributors, The Lounge v3.0.0 really is the release of all the superlatives. It ships some of our most-upvoted and longest-awaited feature requests, with significant improvements all across the board, and a brand new documentation website.
_**TL;DR:** If you are only looking for a simple list of **breaking changes** before we jump onto a shortlist of the top changes below, we now have an [upgrade guide](https://thelounge.chat/docs/guides/upgrade). You can also try [our demo](https://demo.thelounge.chat) to see and test the new features._
We rewrote [our entire documentation](https://thelounge.chat/docs) from scratch to better reflect the full capabilities of The Lounge. The website is now mobile-friendly, has a search feature, detailed pages about installation, usage, and configuration, and a list of guides to make The Lounge effortless to set up to your needs.
The first thing you might notice is how the overall UI has changed. We extracted [Crypto](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge-theme-crypto) and [Zenburn](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge-theme-zenburn) into dedicated themes to only ship our default and updated theme, and Morning, the dark version of our default theme. Our logo made its way to the client and its notification-aware favicons. Speaking of notifications, the browser window title now contains the number of unread notifications you have received:
One of the most notable additions of this release is the ability to **reload messages from history** (previous conversations and channels) between restarts of The Lounge. This bridges a significant and long-standing gap with other traditional IRC clients, and creates an opportunity for more advanced features (such as a search capability). See the [corresponding configuration option](https://thelounge.chat/docs/configuration#messagestorage) for more details.
The Lounge now lets you **upload files**! Once [enabled in your configuration file](https://thelounge.chat/docs/configuration#fileupload), you can directly upload files and images from the UI:
To upload a file, use the icon in the message input, or simply drag-and-drop it on the UI.
A new set of commands gives you the ability to **ignore users** based on nickname or hostmask: `/ignore`, `/unignore`, and `/ignorelist`.
List ignored users directly from the UI using the context menu on networks
📂 The **channel list** packs a lot of improvements:
- It is now possible to **collapse channels/direct messages** under a given network:
- New **keyboard shortcuts** have been added to easily navigate between lobbies. A list of all available shortcuts can be found in the Help window of the client.
- You can now **edit existing networks** from the UI. Most changes will take effect after the next reconnection, but editing the network name will go into effect immediately.
To edit a network, click the according action in the network context menu
- You can also **disconnect and re-connect** directly from the network context menu. Disconnected networks will stay disconnected upon restarts of the server.
- Networks now reflect their **connection and security status**. For a network to be considered secure, it has to use a valid and trusted TLS certificate (trusted by your Node.js installation) or to be connected to localhost.
- When joining a new channel, it is now added to the list in **alphabetical order**. You can still sort channels yourself by dragging them around.
- The channel list can now be **hidden on desktop devices**.
🌍 **Links previews** have also been improved:
- They gained an **expand button** if the title or description text is truncated:
- Your browser language is now passed onto the server of the URL being fetched so that previews can be **displayed in your language** (depending on remote server support).
- Any error occuring while pre-fetching a URL (e.g. request failure or max size exceeded) will be displayed on the interface. More details can be seen by expanding the preview.
💬 The **message input** also gets a few improvements:
- You can now easily wrap text with quotes, brackets, parentheses, etc. by selecting characters then hitting the corresponding key:
- The input bar no longer aggressively steals the keyboard focus. This change makes it possible to tab through focusable/clickable elements in the UI. Typing or pasting text (using Ctrl/⌘+V) anywhere when nothing is in focus will however automatically set the focus to the input bar.
⚙️ Here are a few new things you may notice in the **client settings** window:
- Some settings may now be hidden behind the new "Advanced settings" checkbox:
- You can now (optionally) **synchronize client settings** across all your devices:
- You can also instruct your device to open all URLs starting with `irc://` using The Lounge:
🖥 Administrators handling the server and using the CLI will notice a few changes:
- Text log format has been modified to improve formatting and consistency with other IRC software. The `logs.format` and `logs.timezone` settings have been removed. The Lounge now logs timestamps using a format of `YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss` (which used to be the default value) in UTC timezone. These are some of the breaking changes we have documented in our [upgrade guide](https://thelounge.chat/docs/guides/upgrade).
- The inline documentation of the configuration file that gets generated at `~/.thelounge/config.js` has been entirely rewritten. It can also be found in a rich-format on [the configuration documentation](https://thelounge.chat/docs/configuration).
- The `thelounge install` command now allows you to install a **specific version**, such as `thelounge install thelounge-theme-solarized@1.0.0`.
- A new command, `thelounge update`, has been added to **update all installed packages and themes** at once.
- Message logging is now enabled for LDAP users.
💎 Other notable changes:
- Visibility of the password fields can now be toggled using the eye icon:
- If you are operator in a channel, the user context menu now lets you voice/devoice and op/deop users:
- MOTDs in network windows have been improved to correctly display ASCII art:
- The `/whowas` command is now supported and its response is displayed in a direct message window.
- It is now possible to include randomly-generated numbers into the default nickname on page load, using percent signs (`%`). For example, this helps avoiding nick collisions in public mode. See the [configuration option](https://thelounge.chat/docs/configuration#defaults).
- URL detection in messages now supports links without protocol or `www.` prefixes (if the top-level domain is valid) and has been improved overall by switching to [a better library](https://markdown-it.github.io/linkify-it/).
- Accessibility of the interface has been improved throughout the interface. If you are an assistive technology user and encounter accessibility issues, we encourage you to [open an issue on GitHub](https://github.com/thelounge/thelounge/issues/new) to help us identifying and resolving them.
- Among other improvements to CTCP handling, the network window now reports when someone is making a CTCP request against your nickname:
This concludes the highlights of this release, but there is a lot more to it: new and improved features, security fixes, etc., of which you will find a more comprehensive list below.
So much work has happened in the last year, result of the hard work of so many contributors that we are incredibly thankful for. We hope you will love The Lounge v3. ❤️
_One more thing: we started [an Open Collective](https://opencollective.com/thelounge) a few months back, where recurring and one-time donations are welcome, should you wish to help us financially. Among other things, it allows us to assemble and ship free sticker packs, so [make sure to grab yours](https://goo.gl/forms/f5usqAEp5DWoeXC92)!_
